LEGACY NEWSLETTER

LET’S TALK

Kelly K. Shrock, President

The Community Foundation is designed to serve the community today, tomorrow, and always. When donors made the first gifts to the Foundation, they were thinking about the future of Muncie and Delaware County. As we partner with nonprofit organizations, we talk about the future, too. We have conversations with nonprofit organizations about their strategies for sustainability. We discuss what is needed to help them meet the challenge they are working to address. We have similar conversations with donors who choose The Community Foundation as a partner. We discuss their plans for philanthropy and support them as they put their plans in place.

To practice what we preach, we are excited to share with you about The Board of Directors Endowment Fund. Under the direction of our board, this fund will support the Foundation’s operations and help sustain our organization today, tomorrow, and always.

In this issue of Legacy, we’ll share more about partnerships and sustainability. Learn the many ways we partner with one local nonprofit, the Muncie Children’s Museum, to illustrate our desire for a healthy, well-supported, and sustainable nonprofit sector. Read more about the Board of Directors Endowment Fund, and how you can support our sustainability. Join us as we say our goodbyes and hellos to board members and kick off our new board year.
